Creating accessible content

ASU general guidelines and resources

While the Orchard platform itself has been tested for accessibility, it is the content creator's responsibility to ensure content added to the platform complies with level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1. Content should also adhere to ASU's IT Accessibility Standard

There are a wide variety of resources to help content creators achieve this important purpose. 

To get started, we encourage you to visit ASU's accessibility page. Here you will find information about best practices for creating different content types, along with links to ASU accessibility support resources, and even courses offered on the topic.
